I grabbed a copy of ProComm 2.3 several days ago. It seems like a very nice
program, but also rather buggy. It has a *very* annoying tendency to lock
up completely, and has trouble with terminal emulations. Has anybody else
had and/or solved these problems?

	- Alt-S (setup) locks up an AT every time (IBM and clone. A second
		clone didn't have trouble)
	- Kermit transfers tend to get locked up
	- It frequently locks up when you aren't receiving anything (goes
		into a receive loop at the wrong time?)
	- TVI 925/950 emulation locks up often when things like 'sysline'
		try to write to the status line
	- TVI 950 isn't worth beans in vi.

	- TVI 925 locks up immediately when initialized with the standard
		termcap init string in the berkeley termcap file

I'd love to use this program, if only it worked!
